It was in the Alpena News yesterday that the Citizens Committee for Michigan State Parks is going to be having a meeting in Alpena concerning what to do with 4300 acres of land at Rockport. I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions on a good way to let them know we would like to be able to have ATV access on the land. There are really no trails to speak of in Alpena county and the county would benefit from having trails there. Should I get a petition going? Any Suggestions?

I appreciate any help in this. This area is starved for tourist dollars and lacks a quality trail system. If there is anything you guys need me to dig up let me know.

The meeting is September 19 @ 5:30 at the Great Lake Maritime Heritage Center Theater.

Bones right now ATVs are only legal in 4 1/2 countys in the lower. Ogemaw,Cheboygon,Presque Isle, Montmorency, and about 1/2 of Iosco. there are many other countys watching to see what troubles these countys have issues with when it comes to ATVs. they think everone is a bunch of hoodlums come to ransack the neighbors.
